Return to Airsoft

Neither did I until I called, if I wanted the Pfizer that was done at the Royal or General (two major hospitals in Leicester) and the Astra was at the Glenfield Hospital which is like 5mins away.

I wasn’t fussed which and since parking at the royal is stupidly expensive and the general was the other side of city. I went for ease of getting their and I chose the day’n’time to avoid the so called queues, I walked in, sat down to answer a couple of questions and then went to get my jab, I was in & out in 10mins. I haven’t had any side effects or anything that is on the list nor the arm is t sore either, Mrs ain’t happy as her’s hurt like billy’O but she had the Pfizer one :D


You can at least tease her and say you are supporting British vaccines for British people.

Her fault for getting the Yank vaccine ?

Given a choice, I had my heart set on the Pfizer one considering it's supposed to be more effective against the variants and most of family are in Bristol. We'll see.

We have some things in common it seems!

My Grandmother was born in Austria to German parents, my Great Grandmother was a staunch Nazi who defended Hitler to the help, yet my Great Grandfather was one of the 7% of pacifists and a true leftist socialist. I can only imagine the dinner table conversation.

He was called up to service as a medic. 

They both fled to Austria when the allies got close. 

My Grandmother arrived in the country after meeting my English Grandad. Of course she is 100% anti immigration now and yes is fully aware of the hypocrisy!
Yeah I think so. 
 

Unfortunately my family history is a lot more shady when it comes to the Nazis which is another thread I think lol 

 
@Asomodai I read that to her after she asked what I was laughing at.

The only reason she had the yank one was due to her surgery being able to store the Pfizer at -70, she said that even when they got the Astra one too people where still refusing a jab.

 
I could send you a pic of my pork mate but maybe not appropriate lol. Maybe pm? Lol.

Ah my wife is fine with it really, the fact I was English was quite the stumbling block with one of her family which nearly ended things. I voluntarily gave up pork in the hope it would help them accept me more.

After we got married and were allowed to move in together they asked whether I would have a separate fridge for my pork... It turns out the missus never told them I gave it up... it wouldnt have been a problem after all!

I just stuck without it since as I only ate the unhealthy bits anyway!

In fact the only time I have eaten it since was when the missus tried her hand at cooking and got a pack of special fried rice. She took a bite of it and said it tasted funny, I said it tasted delicious. She didnt know what was in special fried rice... I love telling her Mother about that story!

Is it just me or do supermarkets do their level best to try and hide goose fat? It should be either near the Cranberry sauce or the stuffing. But eventualy found some nestled between eggs and dried pasta in Asda.

I thought the stereotype is that all Germans cook their veg in meat fat? At least they did when I played at a festival in Leipzig! Glorious glorious taste.

I stand corrected. I was playing at Wave Gotik Treffen in 2008 at Werk II. Quite a while back, memory is rather hazy.
